CNN News:澳尸花罕見綻放 花期短引萬人爭睹

AZUZ: You know, you can tell some people that something tastes disgusting and they just got to try it anyway for themselves. This plant is kind of like that. It`s called titan arum, aka, the corpse flower.

你知道，你可以告訴一些人某種食物很難吃，并且他們無論如何自己都要試一試。這種植物就是這樣，它叫做泰坦魔芋，又名尸花。

It blooms for less than 48 hours, giving off an unparallel stink and then it collapses. For some reason, folks lined up in droves to get a whiff, the natural nose-assaulting nastiness notwithstanding. This happened recently when a titan arum blossomed in South Australia.

它的花期不到48小時，會釋放出無法匹敵的臭味，然后就會枯萎。前不久，在澳洲植物園里的巨花魔芋突然盛開，因其花旗短暫，出于某些原因，此罕見現(xiàn)象吸引人們成群結(jié)隊地排隊來嗅它的獨特氣味。

You wouldn't`t be bloomed to say the arum`s aroma was titanically rotten. But there are times not to follow the flow of the crowd, if no one knows when to hold their nose when sniffing whiffs that reek, perhaps the proboscis suffers no losses when plugging its probing beak.

你不用模糊地表達這株巨花魔芋所散發(fā)的巨大的“腐魚肉氣味”。但確實在某些時候，不要隨波逐流，如果在嗅它的臭味時，沒人知道什么時候應(yīng)該捏住他們的鼻子。當鼻子塞時，或許將免遭任何損失。
